4048 Her Identity Is Very Suspicious (7)
“What… what? You… what did you say?!”
As Li Shihong stood up from his seat in shock, he accidentally knocked over the teacup on the table and it fell to the ground, shattering all over the ground with a resounding crash.
But soon, he calmed down again, sat down again, and said: “What kind of nonsense rumours are these, can you believe such nonsense? This was clearly a plan by the Sacred Phoenix Clan to sow discord! Steward He, I think you are usually a calm and collected person, can such a stable person as yourself even believe such words? It is obviously nonsense!”
“Young Miss Li is just a human race, and she doesn’t have the aura of the Ancient God Clans at all. Moreover, if she is really a god-level genius of the Sacred Phoenix Clan, the Sacred Phoenix Clan will immediately recognise her. How could she be allowed to come to the Cloudy Qilin Clan?”
Li Shihong felt that he still had brains. How could such an obviously impossible thing happen?
“Those people from the Sacred Phoenix Clan may have let you hear these words on purpose, so you take it seriously! Don’t spread it outside, do you hear?”
Li Shihong’s first reaction was complete disbelief, which was already expected by Steward He, so he didn’t feel any panic at all.
Of course, on the surface, he still made a frightened expression, bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
However, when Li Shihong waved him to go down, he insisted on standing where he was, hesitating to speak several times.
“Patriarch, this subordinate knows that this is inappropriate, but… but… this subordinate still thinks that Young Miss Li is a bit suspicious…”
“What do you mean?” Li Shihong’s face darkened, “I have already made it very clear that Young Miss Li cannot be from the Sacred Phoenix Clan. If she is, there are so many elders with outstanding cultivation bases in the clan. Doesn’t it mean that not even one of them can see that?”
“Subordinate…subordinate doesn’t mean that…” Steward He gritted his teeth, and with an expression of resignation, he said loudly regardless: “Patriarch, this subordinate really can’t see you being deceived by a little girl again, no matter you believe it or not, what I should say, I still want to say!”
“The origin of that Young Miss Li is very suspicious. She said that she is the daughter of a Spirit Medicine Master. She lived in seclusion in the mountains with her father and Senior Brothers since she was a child, learning medical skills. Where did her cultivation come from? Even if her talent is high enough, as we all know, the higher the talent, the more resources are needed to advance, and staying in the deep mountains without the support of big forces, can she easily reach the Heart Profound Realm?”
“Also, she suddenly appeared in the Cloudy Qilin Clan. The timing is too good, right? The Young Master was unconscious, and she appeared, and even concealed her talent. Is there really no purpose?”
“When I say this, you may think that I am making wild guesses, Patriarch, but I have evidence! Once I happened to pass by the Young Master’s residence and saw Young Miss Li practicing in it. She is clearly of a fire attribute!”
Steward He looked like he was going all out, and spoke quickly, like pouring beans, and said what he wanted to say.
Li Shihong had no time to interrupt him.
Originally, Steward He was so rude, but Li Shihong couldn’t help but want someone to drag him out.
However, Li Shihong’s expression changed on the spot after he heard the last sentence he said clearly.
“What did you say? That Young Miss Li is a fire attribute cultivator? How is this possible?”
Steward He said: “How is this impossible? That’s the truth! Patriarch, please recall, has she never formally made a move in front of the Elders?”
